THE TORTILITA MINES.
The Hartford Post their Greatness.-
One OF the Richest Mining Properties
In the World.
Especial Despatch.l


HARTFORD, CT, Aug. II, 1887.
The Post of this city prints in to-day
issue full page article on the Tortilita gold
and silver mines of which Mr.. Joseph H.
Real, (who Is being urged for Vice President
on the ticket with Cleveland as the represen-
tative Of the agricultural and laboring inter-
ests) is President. The Post shows that the
Tortilita company have one of the greatest
mining properties in America and it estimates
that with the forty stamp mill that is now
being arranged for, which will crush l60
tons of ore per day, that the company can
earn over one hundred thousand
dollars per month net or over one
hundred per cent. per year on its
capital stock which would make the shares
that are now selling to subscribers for 50
each. the par value. st the company's office,
81 Broadway, New \ lrk, worth over twenty
dollars each, while this result can be again
doubled by additional stamps as the company
have an inexhaustible supply of rich ore. A
second Virginia City is predicted in connec-
ton with the Tortilitas as the company have
twelve developed and proven mines out of
which over Sl50,000 in bullion was taken
while the exploring and developing work was
going on which, together with the prices now
being realized for the shares SO soon after
they were put upon the market, are unex-
ampled facts in the history of mining. The
Post pronounces the Tortilitas one of the
best and cleanest cut enterprises that the
public ever was invited to invest in. The
stock is attracting much attention throughout
New England and is being largely taken for
investment by bankers. merchants, farmers,
and by working men and women Ii is an.
nounced that the subscription books will
close in few days preparatory to the stock
being called on the Consolidated Stock
Exchange. The offices of the company are
at 81 Broadway, New York, and the mines
are in the richest mineral district OF Arizona.

UNCLE TONS CABIN IN RICHMOND.
The famous Uncle Toms Cabin" play
seems to have peculiar attractions for 'snde"
companies. Every year brings with it crop of
these "cabin" troup es and it seems they all
visit Richmond, and occasionally one amuses
Augusta people. The Richmond Bee critic
thus humorously considers recent perfor-
nance in that town.
1t would be hard to imagine a poorer
dramatic performance than that which was
given under canvas Tuesday evening by
Witherell & Davies Uncle Toms Cabin Com
panv. Not only was the time-honored play
mutilated beyond recognition to suit the re-
quirements of a meagre company. but the
cast of characters was sctually ridiculous.
Haley, the slave huater, for example, was
personaled bv a consumptive looking chap,
who appeared to be too weak TO crack whip.
The elegant st CLAIR appeared IN the gulse
of q short, thckset individual, with voice
like an Irish boatswain and hands like Gin
cinnau hams. UueI4 Tom was round
shouldrred coon, thin AS fence rail- and ln-
stead of singing his by INNS to Eva, as he
ought to have done, he merely recited them.
Topsy was represented by woman
who looked to be six feet tall,
and who varied her perform
ance by alternately scratching her legs and
INDUCING in pointless local gags The only
passable characters were Eva and dog
The former WAS bright little Miss, who took
, her part fairly well, and the latter was big
brute who ought to have been turned loose
on MARKS the Lawyer" and allowed to lunch
freely on that worthy. The only enjoyable
feature of the entertainment was the music,
performed by string band composed of
members of both sxes. The audience was
slim one, and was chiefly made up of men

had both ends broken in, the fl Dor raised, and
was showed bodily upon = carload of lumber.
The fireman was thrown completely over
one car and struck on car OF lumber. He
